I really hope there is vCenter somewhere, and you're not just using vanilla ESXi host and licensing that.
Paying for just type-1 hypervisor is like paying stripper for dance, sure it is fun but its is not going anywhere, not for you or her. and at the end of the song your 20 dollars short.

Can you create it with virsh? Wondering if it's just a virt-manager issue since they are deprecating it.
Over my dead body. I love virt-manager they kick that out and I will be kicking them out. not everyone wants web gui using resources and being inefficient with VNC protocol and opening another port.
Both virt-manager and cockpit just run viral commands. So you could learn those.
I assume you said virsh, but since we are going that route how about I daydream and visualize the whole VM in my head since we want to take alot longer time to do simple tasks. That said Centos/RHEL 7 will be supported for 2024 and I doubt you need any new feature upgrades in a hypervisor. and dont text and drive .

@Emad-R said in SAP will be major grow for Linux:
I might work as system admin for such company that offers SAP, can you give me summary. on SAP/HANA on linux if possible
SAP itself is the world's largest ERP maker. Like most ERPs, they are heavily driven by their underlying database. Traditionally SAP used "old fashioned" relational databases from third parties with Oracle DB and MS SQL Server being the most common.
In recent years, SAP decided that relational data and third parties were not right for their customers for many reasons. Performance, flexibility, complexity, and cost. Third party database licensing was causing a huge portion of the cost of an SAP implementation to go to SAP's competitors (all of the DB makers made their own ERPs.) So customers were paying too much, and getting too little.
HANA is a NoSQL database made by SAP that improves performance and flexibility on SAP's products, while lowering cost and allowing SAP to do greater integration and simplify deployments. It's a huge win for both SAP and customers. The only losers are third parties who were making huge profits while adding little to nothing to do the ecosystem.
Like always , you deliver
And HANA gets installed on either SUSE or RHEL.
interesting ...
seems it will operate similar on both, but there is marketing war between both for what OS you will choose to host HANA on it
I might work as system admin for such company that offers SAP, can you give me summary. on SAP/HANA on linux if possible, also i see SUSE alot for SAP was expecting RHEL
However, the release of S/4HANA signaled the end of pre-HANA systems for enterprises. As of 2025, all SAP customers will be required to migrate to HANA, which only runs on Linux operating systems. In just under a decade, then, Oracle, DB2 and MS SQL Server will no longer be supported by SAP – a change that affects hundreds and thousands of companies worldwide.
This lack of support means the majority of SAP customers will need to either switch their database to HANA, or move applications from SAP to another business analytics provider. Both options are challenging. However, migrating to Linux is a future-proof solution, ensuring compatibility across current systems and databases.

Lightweight Virtualization
Lightweight virtualization in SmartOS means that:
There is only one OS, and for practical purposes it is read-only
You boot from a USB stick. Want to upgrade your OS? Pop in a new USB stick. I can't overstate the fundamental rightness of that.
In all other respects, each zone or container is its own virtual machine, with its own network interfaces, etc., isolated from the rest of the universe
You get bare-metal performance from your hardware - no emulation, no virtual I/O driver talking to a real I/O driver, no extra memory copies getting data in or out
You can do a lot more with minimal hardware than you could if you were running full-blown virtualization (though SmartOS supports KVM, so if you want Linux VMs you can have them)
Each zone is its own ZFS volume - so you get a bulletproof, enterprise grade filesystem with redundancy, snapshots you can zap over to another machine, and easy management
The reverse proxy will do this, but something about PF that makes it more reliable. just tell them to change port number when they visit the page or bookmark it .
Also usually your not allowed to PF on residential stuff, even you set it up it wont work.

Why in God's green earth would you deploy XP today? Or would you continue to operate Windows XP?

Also this seems insane that the customer has an $80,000 camera, but can't or won't purchase an updated system to run it.
Sadly, there are many. hehe x2
I had to deal with clients that paid 100K for unnecessary server room safety and ridiculous hardware that we dont need, and when I told them to get support subscription-like from canonical they were like nah your smart we dont need that.

Interested to know the model of the camera, but i think what you might want to do is Windows 2008 R2 with latest patches, i cant think of scenario that Windows 7/2008R2 wont run an XP program.
And the above has good security updates till 2018 and i think 2008 R2 is still supported ? right ?
But yeah ditch the XP man, it seems you got used to having it around.
@marcinozga said in Why containers are free and easy but managing them is hard and costly:
You're comparing apples to oranges. Hypervisors vs k8s makes no sense. And what makes you think that running containers in production is only viable with tools like k8s? That's like saying running vm in production only makes sense on openstack. Docker for example can easily be managed with Ansible, or if you want web tool, Portainer, including managing swarm clusters.
True docker swarm is exception, but it gets overshadowed by k8s and openshift usually and it lacks auto scaling, and not really apple to oranges cause both methods will host your software
I believe currently the containers management/orchestration market (the only way to run in Production) has a different status than containers, sure you can easily run docker anywhere, but you can't say the same on k8s. I rarely see a production k8s cluster managed by a person/team and not handing that over to a could provider, the same can not be said to ESXi/KVM/Hyper-V.
The only propper truly open implementation for containers I really liked was Canonical LXD, really no proprietary format what so ever you actually export the container as tar.gz image, and management system is baked in using advanced filesystem like ZFS. however sadly due to politics, it is not being implemented widely and I think RHEL/Centos actually dropped library from their repository to stop allowing successful and easy install of LXD on their OS.
I feel everyone jumped on the wagon and screwed things up, or they are attracting you to only to screw you over, cause the prices of k8s cluster is huge at the moment, which begs the question you can pay the below for 3 node k8s cluster from Google/Amazon/Azure
$2,052 per month ($1,539 with discounts) $2,880 per month $2,880 per month

So the cheapest option for a 3 node is 2000 $ (disregarding other costs ), well I get the autoscaling part and everything but for that amount of money, you can get 80 of those distributed VPS at many countries, like who needs auto-scaling if you have 80 VMs world wide.

Hi,
I don't get why they recommended chocolatey pkg management solution, cause you don't need it in your scenario. why would you need to install apps easily using choco ? your goal to lockin users and have them not install apps.
What you need is KIOSK platform. usually Linux OS works better for this, especially if what you are providing is simple web browsing experience, any linux OS with chrome without sudo user permissions will work great for your needs.
Let's just have one big index website and give it an IP 1.1.1.1
